Illustration Friday - Book

I've been a bit distracted this week but for me the theme of "book" worked hand in hand with the theme a couple of weeks ago "imagination". This one though I'm not as happy with...but being 11.30 pm on Thursday night...I have to post!

Who am I?

I live in the middle of the desert, where the dirt is rusty red, the sun is hot, hot, hot and the stars are always bright. Every night I put bread on to bake and while my family are sleeping I walk through the dark night of my house, listening to the quiet and watching the moon. This is the time when stories and pictures are made inside my head. I scribble them on the back of phone bills and toilet paper because if I don’t, they disappear into the night and are forgotten when I wake in the morning to the smell of warm crusty bread.
